Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension: chasing “the fall”
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2008 Abstract Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a frequently encountered problem affecting nearly 30% of the population aged more than 60 years. It can result from neurological and non-neurological derangements which compromise the perfusion of the brain in an erect posture. Neurogenic OH is a manifestation of autonomic failure.

Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension. Lessons From Synucleinopathies. [PDF]
Am J Hypertens, 2021 Abstract Maintenance of upright blood pressure critically depends on the autonomic nervous system and its failure leads to neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (NOH). The most severe cases are seen in neurodegenerative disorders caused by abnormal α-synuclein deposits: multiple system atrophy (MSA), Parkinson’s disease, Lewy body dementia,

Primary neurogenic orthostatic hypotension [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1970 Eight further cases of neurogenic orthostatic hypotension are described together with a necropsy study on one case. Three cases showed evidence of autonomic dysfunction in isolation, while in five cases this was accompanied by evidence of more diffuse central nervous system degeneration.
